The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a multi-aptitude test battery consisting of 10 individual tests. Students receive scores on each individual test as well as composite scores based on the combination of individual tests. Composite scores are given in the areas of Verbal, Math, and Academic Ability. Students who would like to join the military need to take the ASVAB. It is also a career exploration test so any student can take it even if they are not interested in the military.

The Preliminary SAT (PSAT) test is a standardized test that provides practice for the SAT test. It is also a pre-qualifier to enter the National Merit Scholarship Corporation scholarship program, National Achievement Scholarships for Outstanding Black Students, and the National Hispanic Scholar Recognition Program. The PSAT provides feedback on student's strengths and weaknesses for study in college.
(Taken by 10th, 11th, and 12th graders)
The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program (AP) enables students to pursue college-level studies while still in high school. Based on their performance on rigorous AP examinations, students can earn credit, advanced placement, or both for college. Students are strongly encouraged to take the Advanced Placement exams. Colleges look favorably at transcripts that have AP courses. A Department of Education study reports that participation in AP courses is one of the strongest predictors of college success. AP Courses are open to any student who wishes to enroll.
NOTE: Each AP course requires a minimum of 1-2 hours of homework each night. Plan accordingly.
